Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "Commander of the 43rd Battalion of the British 42nd East Reims Division¡ªLieutenant Colonel Rosen!"

    When this voice sounded, countless incredible exclamations rang out.

    Lieutenant Colonel Rosen!  That Lieutenant Colonel Rosen who was let go by Baron Alexson!

    Before this, no one, including Wang Weiyi, would have thought that British Lieutenant Colonel Rosen would actually appear in Berlin and appear in court.

    And now this incredible thing has really happened.

    Rosen seemed very calm: "I'm sorry, actually I should have come earlier, but you have to know how difficult it is for a British person to enter Germany, especially Berlin. Fortunately, the police we met,  When they heard that we were here to testify for Baron Alexson, they gave us the greatest convenience"

    "The German police are the best police in the world. You are lucky, Lieutenant Colonel Rosen." The serious Marquis Felix of Yorksau actually made a joke that was not very funny, which made the atmosphere in the court slightly relaxed.  A little, but then Felix returned to his serious expression:

    "Do you know that if an officer from a belligerent country appears here, he will definitely be arrested, Lieutenant Colonel Rosen?"

    "My companions and I both know and understand what we will face, but we feel that we should do something for Baron Alexon to express our gratitude." Lieutenant Colonel Rosen said calmly.

    "Okay then, please stand on the witness stand."

    Felix asked Rosen to stand on the witness stand, and his companions were arranged to sit down respectively. Then Felix asked: "Can you tell me why you are here."

    "Yes, Lord Marquis." Lieutenant Colonel Rosen didn't care where he was now: "I was recuperating before, but I got a message that the enemy's Captain Ernst Brahm was captured for treason.  . I was surprised, how could the creator of the miracle on the Somme be a treason? When I later learned that he was arrested on suspicion of being a British spy because of his release, my conscience was pricked and I felt obliged to do so.  Tell me everything I know"

    "I don't quite believe what you say, Lieutenant Colonel Rosen." Marklin interrupted: "A senior military officer from an enemy country would actually risk his life to testify for his enemy?"

    "We are soldiers, and soldiers fight for their country. If I had a chance on the battlefield, I would not hesitate to shoot and kill Baron Alexon, but now it is not about the war, but about the honor of a soldier.  For the conscience of an upright person. If I don¡¯t come, I won¡¯t be worthy of being an upright person, and I will be spurned by everyone who knows the truth! Mr. Lawyer, I don¡¯t think you will understand what an upright person thinks!¡± Rosen!  The lieutenant colonel responded unceremoniously.

    This is another humiliation that Marklin suffered today.

    Rosen ignored him: "But I also hesitated. I thought about what would happen once I came to Berlin? I would be arrested and stay in a prisoner of war camp until the end of the war. Should I do that?"  I told myself that if I chose to escape, I would spend my whole life in shame and self-blame. I gathered all the wounded who returned to the hospital that day and told them about it. Unexpectedly,  To my surprise, they all agreed to come to Berlin to testify for Baron Alexson"

    When he said this, Felix said: "Please allow me to express a German's respect for you, Lieutenant Colonel Rosen. You have nothing to criticize in your character, no matter what kind of outcome you face,  You are an upright gentleman.¡±

    "Thank you, Lord Marquis." Lieutenant Colonel Rosen didn't seem to think this was anything special: "Let me tell you in detail what happened that day"

    He carefully told everything that happened that day.  How the Germans suddenly launched an artillery attack, how Ernst Brahm's army occupied the defensive position of the 43rd Battalion, how he and his companions were injured, and how Ernst Brahm agreed to them  request and personally escort them back

    "I sincerely praise God for allowing us to meet Baron Alexon." At this time, Lieutenant Colonel Rosen's voice became choked: "I never thought that I would encounter such an enemy. It was like I was in the dark  In the desperate situation, an angel suddenly appeared and saved me. No, it was us! Thank you, Ernst Alexson von Brahm. All the officers and soldiers of the 43rd Battalion of the British 42nd East Reims Division could not.  Forget you, no matter what judgment the court will make on you, you will be our eternal benefactor!¡±

    Some women in the auditorium had tears in their eyes, and even those determined men couldn't help but sigh.

    CanWhat an honor it is to receive such praise from the enemy?

    Lieutenant Colonel Rosen calmed down his emotions: "These people I brought are willing to testify for Baron Alexson. At the same time, I also brought a personal letter from the commander of the East Reims Division, General Mollington."

    After saying that, he took out a letter and submitted it.

    Felix read the letter carefully and then told everyone: "This is General Monlington's letter. In the letter, General Monlington proved the words of Baron Alexson and the testimony of Lieutenant Colonel Rosen  At the same time, he said that if necessary, he could personally interview our representatives at the junction of the fighting between the two armies"

    There were sighs.

    Baron Alexson was wrongly accused. He did not commit treason. He was just doing what a gentleman should do.

    "What makes me wonder is, why do you doubt Baron Alexon?" Lieutenant Colonel Rosen finally said: "If there is such a hero in Britain, we will cheer for him, and no rumors can offset us.  So much respect for him. It¡¯s incredible to me that Baron Alexson is standing in the courtroom right now.¡±

    The court fell silent.

    After a while, Felix sighed: "I feel a little ashamed of myself"

    At this time, Schlaf suddenly stood up and asked: "Lieutenant Colonel Rosen, please allow me to ask you another question. What do you think of Baron Alexson's performance in 'Miracle on the Somme'?"

    "Genius, or devil." Lieutenant Colonel Rosen did not hide his emotions at all: "You call him the creator of miracles, but we call him the devil and God. This is something that only God can create.  miracle!"

    Speaking of this, he suddenly thought of something: "Why, do you still doubt this miracle?"
